In depth
Verdict
David Pipe runs two in this. ALDRIN has two ways of running but may be a better bet than than three-year-old Malangen with Charlie Hammond taking off 5lb and he gets a tentative vote. Handsome Dan likes it here and Sarah Hollinshead’s veteran is likely to be thereabouts again. Lady Maleficent is better than she showed on her return to action at Uttoxeter and Stonecoldsoba is closely matched with the selection on recent form. Ninepointsixthree and Bard Of Brittany are others to consider.
